United Arab Emirates – Free Trade Zones
Free Trade Zones (FTZ) constitute an important advantage of the United Arab Emirates. In the whole of the UAE there are more than 37 FTZ which have special legal status and which offer favorable conditions for foreign and national entrepreneurs.
The UAE has several free zones across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Fujairah, Ajman, Ras al Khaimah and Um Al Qwain. Free Zones may also be broadly categorized as sea port free zones, air port free zones, and mainland free zones.
Some of the main advantages of doing business in free trade zones in Dubai and other Emirates in the UAE:
Possibility of renting and purchasing real estate: both commercial and residential.
Investors can either register a new company in the form of a Free Zone Establishment (FZE) or simply establish a branch or representative office of their existing or parent company based within the UAE or abroad.
An FZE is a limited liability company governed by the rules and regulations of the Free Zone in which it is established. Except for acquiring nationality in the UAE, the provisions of the Commercial Companies Law (CCL) do not apply to FZEs, provided that the Free Zones have special provisions regulating such companies.
